The second fabric I used is the Christmas tree fabric. This is a fabric I could see myself using a lot - it's not strictly a Christmas fabric, just a nice pine tree design that would works in lots of projects!
Since it is directional I had to think about the cutting for this one! It worked out perfectly because I used the same method for cutting the triangles as in the Ohio Star block. It takes two 5 1/4 inch squares cut in half diagonally so I just had to makes sure to keep the triangles sorted correctly. It's a little tricky sewing the triangles to each other because you have to offset them just right, but if you put a pin through the seam line at the corners it's easy to match them up just right.
I used this fabric for the corners - another favorite:
